Famous quotes containing the words mala and/or vision:
“From old Florentine novels, and also—from life: “Buona femmina e mala femmina vuol bastone.” Sacchetti, Nov. 86.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“In clear weather the laziest may look across the Bay as far as Plymouth at a glance, or over the Atlantic as far as human vision reaches, merely raising his eyelids; or if he is too lazy to look after all, he can hardly help hearing the ceaseless dash and roar of the breakers. The restless ocean may at any moment cast up a whale or a wrecked vessel at your feet. All the reporters in the world, the most rapid stenographers, could not report the news it brings.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
